This weeks subject is glass, or better, made of glass. So, not only the thing you drink off (be it the glass or the bottle...), but also glass ornaments, windows, lenses, whatever!

P52-4-20 Winning entry by jheu02

(Photos for the Week #42 competition are to be taken between Nov 4 2013 and Nov 10, 2013.)

Rules
1. Anyone and everyone interested in challenge is eligible. The goal continues to be
have fun and share comments, concepts, insights, and techniques with fellow
Pentaxians.
2. Each week will feature a Theme and Sub-concept for you to explore.
3. Post your single picture in Project 52-5 thread for the week. Explain what
motivated you to take the picture and/or how you feel it represents the weekly
theme.
4. Some post-processing is OK (adjusting white balance, exposure, color
saturation), but let's try to stay away from heavily PP'ed images here. Try to
keep the creativity to photographic techniques and the captures themselves.
5. Since this project is about technique, and not camera, shots taken by non Pentax cameras are allowed.
Cameras may be SLRs, DSLRs, Point & Shoot, Medium Format, et cetera.
6. There is one “Theme Concept” labeled “black and white,” but feel free to post
black and white, sepia, monotone, etc., for any of the other themes.
7. The picture you post should be taken during the week in which the theme is
active to be eligible for judging.
8. Any picture taken from thread start date to listed closing date is acceptable.

I have a beautiful piece of handcrafted glass full of swirls, bubbles and a prism. I propped it up in my planter box this morning and had fun photographing it from various angles. Some of the colour in this shot comes from behind the glass; trees, plants, a blue tarp, the wood shed, and other colours are reflected, namely my hunter orange jacket.

I used my K-5, Tamron 90 f/2.8 with the Pentax 1.7x converter.

Not sure if this will be the actual shot submitted, but for now I wanted to at least get something posted in case I get called away on work.

Talk about stiff competition here- its worse than the Weekly challenge-Blue.
Hectic week just past, and still more hectic to come-year end syndrome is not a good thing! Got a few hours yesterday and today, while the Independent Electoral Commission occupied the manse where I live, virtually kicking me out of house. Specifically for voter registration week. So went looking for some glass-thought I would visit a Catholic Church for some inspiration. Along the way I saw this somewhat abstract reflections glass at a private hospital. I like the different shades of blue and green.

some great shots as usual. This is a snack jar after a minor accident. Dried blue berries peanuts and candy corn.

It has been a while for me in the P52 series but I finally had the time and light yesterday morning.
I used my trusty K200D, the Sears 55mm f1.4 and a 17mm extension tube (actually a Cosmos 2X TC with the optics removed)
